Lyrics

The sky was blue
And high above
The moon was new
And so was love
This eager heart of mine was singing, singing
Lover, lover where can you be
That day is past
Love had has day
It couldn't last
And is gone away
This eager heart of mine is singing
Lover lover come on home to me
When I remember every little thing
We used to do
I'm so lonely
Every road I walk along
Was with you
No wonder I am lonely
Well the day has past
Love had has day
It couldn't last
My man's gone away
This eager heart of mine is singing
Saying lover lover come back to me
When I remember every little thing
We used to do
I'm real dog gone lonely
Every road I walk along
Was with you
No wonder I am lonely
Well the day has past
Love had it's day
It couldn't last
He's gone away
This eager heart of mine is singing
Saying lover oh lover oh lover where can you be
